Video interview: Adam Pally talks about finding the right comedic balance in DIRTY GRANDPA

Adam Pally is one the most exciting of the new comedic faces to break out in the past few years, impressing critics and fans alike with his role on HAPPY ENDINGS, and popping up in several film and TV projects. He even stole the scene from Robert Downey Jr. during a cameo in IRON MAN 3. In the new comedy DIRTY GRANDPA, Pally plays Cousin Nick (a rather obnoxious and over-the-top figure) alongside Zac Efron, Robert De Niro and Julianne Hough. It’s also safe to say that his scenes are some of the funniest in the film. We had a chance to sit down with Adam during his recent Dallas press stop, and discuss working on the film and how he finds the right balance with comedy. Check out the interview below, and look for the movie in theaters this weekend.
